Quotes
- Gi: Oh, that poor little whale...!
Gaia: An orphan. Courtesy of Plunder and Blight. I don't mind telling you it makes my blood boil. - Gaia: Some people still kill whales; in the name of scientific research.
Gi: Research? That's killing! That's... that's...
Gaia: (putting her forehead on the top of Gi's head) Cruel, dishonest, inhumane, and in this case – illegal. That's why I want you to put a stop to it.
Gi: You don't have to ask twice. Let's go!
Gaia: (watching the Planeteers rush off) If the rest of the world were like them, I could take a permanent vacation. (touching the baby whale's image on Planet Vision) Oh, well. Now, what are we gonna do about you, little one? - Plunder: Unfortunately, we're running out of room. Time to head back into port.
Blight: I've got something that will cheer you up. Come by my lab and I'll show you the results of my latest research.
Plunder smiles to himself. - Captain Planet returns to the rings.
Plunder: Nice move, Blight! You let the big one get away!
Blight: Don't carpet me, Plunder! Oh, men!
Plunder: Hmph, women. - MAL: (in sing-song voice) Planeteers in the water, Planeteers in the water!
- Captain Planet: By your powers combined...
Plunder: O-oh!
Captain Planet: (finishing his catchphrase) ... I am Captain Planet! - Gaia: (showing the adopted baby whale) Our newest Planeteer!
Gi: Oh, Gaia! The orphan!
Gaia: There's no way I could see this little one die.
Gi: But how are we going to feed it?
Gaia: Just leave that to a mother. (holds out her hand, making two other whales appear) A mother whale, that is.
Gi: That's what I call one big happy family.
